A novel photo-thermo-mechanochemical approach to assembling quinolines catalyzed by iron(II) phthalocyanine has been realized for the first time. This transformation features a cost-efficient catalytic system and operational simplicity, is free of solvent, and shows good substrate tolerance, providing a green alternative to existing thermal approaches. Mechanistic experiments demonstrate that the in-situ-formed secondary amine may be the key intermediate for the further cyclization/aromatization process.
